Unilateralism: a good thing or a bad thing?

Good thing

Bad thing

It depends

Don't know

Bullypulpit recently posted some rambling diatribe about the Bush camp being "unilateralist, isolationist buffoons." And for once, I think he's right. What are your opinions on unilateralism? Good, bad, etc....? (IMHO, it kicks ass. :teeth: To hell with Euro-schmucks!!!)

unilateralism is bad currently (not in general) because the US cannot afford
to fight the Islamist alone. Europe needs to face them too, now our enemies
laugh while we argue over the Invasion of Iraq. The West has a common
finanicial and economic interest, the multinationals make their money
here and in Europe and Japan. The enemy opposes freedom maybe
not as Bush defines it, but they want to have an Islamic type of state
everywhere. Thats why Christians and secularist should barry their
hatchet and recognize the enemy.

We need a new type of crusade (not religiously motivated but based
on our culture and morals (which are based on christianity even
for a nonbeliever like me))

The united west so my vision shares the burden of warfare establishing
democracy (individualism) in muslim countries.

These bastards want to take us all down. Once the conservatives
will take power in Germany I hope the balance in Europe will go toward
this stance, and they will have my vote.

Syria has to be the next target the goverment is weak and with the plo
on the defense we can establish an area of democracy in the middle east.
Israel will have to make concessions so what. Once Lebanon, Palestine,
Syria and Iraq are tipped the rest of the dictators over there cant
get away with blaming the Us and the West for their failures.

But Europe needs to arm up, this is not a talk talk diplomacy way.

We have to kill them into submission. Then like in Japan and Germany
after WW2 the people can take over and just represent their own interest
without racism.

Ok, I would go along with that, if EUROPE did align the way you hope. Truly I chose unilateral ok, simply because France made the choice in UNSC vote. I find it mindblowing that the US is accused of unilateral action after what France pulled and others backed up. Considered in light of the Oil for Food, well shi*!

You are right, the assault from extreme Islam is aimed at Western Civilization, if Europe wishes to continue to ignore it, well unilateralism become synonomous with self preservation of the US.
